Her daughter was at the age to fall in love, and her immaturity was natural. She kept her daughter at home for a while, and after she brought her back to the capital, she kept a close eye on her. The man was not in the capital, so the two would not have a chance to meet.

She had not expected that he would turn out to be the Mo family's eldest grandson.

Bai Youran said excitedly, “It's true, I just saw him. He really is the Mo family's eldest grandson.”

Bai Youran blushed shyly as she smiled and grabbed Zheng Min's arms. “Mother, you used to object to us being together. You insisted that a country boy was not worthy of me. Now that he's the Mo family's eldest grandson, isn't he worthy of me?

“He is the Mo family's eldest grandson, and I'm the Bai family's young lady. Our families are equal in social status. This time, you can't object to me being with Mo Beihan, can you?”

Three years had pa.s.sed but her daughter still had not forgotten him. She had just met him again and now she wanted to marry him. Zheng Min shook her head. She really was a young and silly girl!

Love was preventing her from thinking clearly.

Zheng Min pulled Bai Youran to sit down. “Youran! If Mo Beihan is truly capable, then it's not impossible for you to marry him. But you must listen to me. You are not to hurry the matter. Now Mo Yunhao also likes you, so it looks like you will certainly be the future mistress of the Mo family.

“Now you just have to wait and see. See which of them has the ability to emerge the victor. Then you will marry him and be the Mo family's mistress.”

Bai Youran immediately frowned. “Mother, Mo Beihan is the one I like. Now he is the Mo family's eldest grandson, and the Old Master favors him. If I marry him, the Mo family will certainly be his.”

Zheng Min disagreed. “That's enough, Youran. Don't be so naive! Mo Beihan is just a country boy. Do you think he will become the Mo family's successor so easily?

“He has not been in the capital all these years. Even if the Old Master favors him, he will certainly consider the Mo family's future. The crucial point is whether Mo Beihan can become part of the capital's social circles. It is a question of his ability.

“If he only depends on you, that proves that he doesn't have that much ability. Why marry a man like that? There are plenty of competent and capable men from good families. Now both the Mo family's successors fancy you. You might as well observe them carefully to see who has the most potential.

“Don't forget, everything you have now was given to you by the Bai family. Do you think your Grandfather will still favor you if you marry a useless man and depend on the Bai family?

Bai Youran did not know what to say.

Zheng Min instructed her. “Mo Beihan is here in the capital, so you don't have to worry. Anyway, you are not in a hurry to get married now. So you might as well test them. It's not so easy to become our Bai family's son-in-law. Meanwhile, think of the Mo family matter as his test. If he can pa.s.s, your grandfather will have no objections. He will even be delighted to marry you to him.

“That way, you can retain your status in the Bai family. Your standing in the Bai family will give you the authority in the Mo family. Do you understand?”

Bai Youran pursed her lips. She understood all too well. The Bai family had to approve of her marriage. Now that Mo Beihan was the Mo family's eldest grandson, his status was worthy of her. All that remained was to prove his ability!

Bai Youran nodded. Ultimately, she was not willing to give up her wealth and status in the Bai Family. “I understand, Mother. In the future, you have to help me! I want to marry the man I like.”

Zheng Min smiled. “Of course I will help you!”
